Hello community. I need to help with setting up my TP-LINK router to work with tt's broadband.

I moved home for the third time. Last two times I just swapped rubbish tt routers for my TP-LINK router, just connected it to the sockets and it connected automatically. Didn't have to do anything at all. This time however router can't connect automatically.

Password The password for all of the above is the one you when you were signing up to TalkTalk?

Hope this helps.

Yes, I changed in my router setup the things that says on tt webpage about third party routers. They said I should put my username as landlinenumber@talktalk.net and leave password blank. It doesn't work though.

BartasX @KeithFrench appears to be the go to man on problems like this, so putting his name in here, hopefully he will see this thread.

Hello, thanks for answer. Flashing connection I think means it tries to estabilish a connection I believe? I don't have manual of this router anymore. It flashes for some time, then stops for couple of seconds, and then is flashing again.

I've also tried to put in everything manually in Advanced. Still doesn't work. I am using internet cable that tt provided, everything works fine on Huawei router but can't get it to work on mine TP Links. That's weird, becauseon old house everything worked perfectly and I didn't have to change anything in router. My router also worked just one day before movement, so my router can't be damaged.

The TalkTalk router connects ok so that's been authenticated. The Archer router was working ok at your previous property.

The DSL reports it's disconnected. So the router isn't connected to the MSAN. I'm concluding that maybe you're now connected to a different exchange that hasn't had an MSAN upgrade and the router may need a password to be authenticated at the exchange.

Call 0345 1720 049 from your TalkTalk landline; it should read back to you your broadband password. Enter that in the broadband password box at the router. See if that then connects the DSL.

I just logged to my account and found out my package is Faster Fibre, so it must be a VDSL and not ADSL. Anyway I tried to Quick Setup TalkTalk_VDSL and putting details into Advanced settings with no result. I can't change MTU for more than 1492 (setup says 1500), can't find Transfer Mode/Loop Encaps option, Authentication and router doesn't allow me to leave username blank.

I've reseted my router using 30-30-30 method and started from scratch. Quick Setup TalkTalk_VDSL still gives me disconnected status. I actually have no idea, I'm hitting the wall. Previously it was working flawlessly. But at least I can change MTU to 1500.
